Once again, the Ottawa Senators find themselves in the mushy middle of the pre\u002Dtrade deadline riddle.

While general manager Pierre Dorion has been spotted scouting around the league, possibly in search of a young defenceman in advance of the March 3 trade deadline, what will happen with the existing players whose contracts are set to expire?

Cam Talbot, UFA: After his impressive 7-3-0 run in December, he assumed the number one goaltending job ahead of Anton Forsberg. Come the New Year, though, he has stumbled with a 2-4-0 record, 3.50 goals against average and .882 save percentage. After pulling himself out of Wednesday’s 2-1 win over the New York Islanders with an injury, he won’t be back until after the break. Talbot, 35, has a salary cap hit of $3.

Dylan Gambrell, UFA: Has seen third and fourth line minutes filling injury voids, but with one goal in 28 games, he’ll likely be moving on at season’s end.

Councillor calls on Canadian Tire Centre to cancel Jordan Peterson eventAn Ottawa councillor is calling on the Ottawa Senators and Canadian Tire Centre tocancel controversial psychologist and self-help author Jordan Peterson's book tour stop on Monday night. Shocking that the biggest loser on council hates free speech Not a fan at all but this is grotesque. Fascists. Here we go again!
